How to Improve Your Prayer Life | Pavel Goia knew at a young age that God had called him to ministry. Being born and raised in communist Romania didn’t make following that calling an easy task.

The events that ensued are chronicled in the book One Miracle After Another: The Pavel Goia Story. As Goia shares miraculous stories of answered prayers, be filled with wonder at God’s love in action, learn to commune with Him and know His real and constant presence in your life.
